Team Ninja plans to push the Wii U “as hard as it can”
A couple of weeks ago, Peter Garza, the head of localization at Tecmo Koei, told VG247 that the Wii U version of Ninja Gaiden 3 wasn’t being developed alongside the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions, and that development had only just started. He stated that this was because Team Ninja wants to push the Wii […]

Crytek are “very happy” with the Wii U
This is certainly a more uplifting piece of news than the last quip we heard from Crytek about the Wii U. Cevat Yerli, the company’s CEO, has put all doubt about the system’s power to rest, saying that their team is “very happy” with the specs. The specs are very good. It’s a challenge for designers, […]
Rumour: Wii U set for June 2012 launch, Nintendo struggling to finalize hardware
A fresh rumour has just broken loose from 01net, the same site that accurately leaked a motherload of information about the Wii U several months ago – or as we knew it at the time, Project Café. According to their sources, Nintendo’s strategy of using slightly obsolete technology to minimize costs is on the verge of […]

BioShock Infinite won’t be coming to the Wii U
I think Irrational Games are being a bit…you know, irrational. In an interview with the German site GamesweltTV, they confirmed that they’re not planning to bring BioShock Infinite to Nintendo’s latest and greatest. Not only that, but they don’t have anything else in the cards for the Wii U, either. I find this a bit […]

Did all of Nintendo’s E3 announcements just get leaked?
